Made by Nutri-Tech Solutions - Australia's biggest manufacturer of inputs for organic agriculture. At Cullen, they produce Preparation by burying manure-filled cow horns on the Summer Solstice each year and digging them up on the Winter Solstice. The substance is then diluted in a gravity-fed concrete trough known as a flow form, which replicates a mountain stream and is claimed to enhance the 's power.
Ms Cullen said there was scientific evidence of the impact biodynamic farming had on soil health, but ultimately "you do also have to have faith, but I think people do anyway. I look at the quality of the wines that we make and that's the bottom line," she said.
Every year they source fresh manure from a lactating cow that has just given birth to produce Preparation Before establishing Lark Hill nearly 40 years ago, he was a visiting fellow in mathematics and physics at the Australian National University.

Biodynamic Preparations Biodynamics is a management system which relies on inputs, or preparations , made from a range of commonly found farm by-products, minerals and herbs. Spray Preparations: Horn Manure Prep is made from cow manure, buried in cow horns in the soil over winter. The resultant Horn Manure is used to bring in the calcium activity, bringing in the earthly forces to the soil and helping the soil to develop humus and structure and to attract earthworms and soil micro-organisms.
Preparation 35g per acre is stirred for one hour and applied to the whole farm or garden monthly when getting started, in droplet form, late afternoon. Horn Silica Prep , made from ground up quartz crystal, brings in the silica activity, and is buried in the soil in the cow horns over summer.
It also increases the sugar content of plant sap, sends extra sap to the soil to feed the micro organisms and helps develop resistance to insect attack and fungal diseases.
Stir for one hour and apply early morning, as a fine mist, to all crops and pastures over spring and summer. Biodynamic Compost Preparations — All these preparations aid in the proper fermentation and breakdown of matter in the compost heap or liquid compost teas and keep everything in the living state.
